Would be nice if the error output or log would indicate such failures.

To use `rndc addzone`, named needs to be able to write to the zone
configuration file in its working directory, called 3bf305731dd26307.nzf
for the _default view. Both named and the user invoking rndc need to be
able to read the rndc.key file which is usually in /etc. You need to
create the zone's master file on disk (and any keys etc.) before running
`rndc addzone`.

Tony.
